But now, no one saw Sophia Green’s movements, yet her necklace was at the scene. Though there are no eyewitnesses, this will still cause quite a stir.
"Elly, think carefully, where did you lose your necklace? Was it picked up by someone?"
Old Lady Clark spoke up very directly, implying to everyone that Elly Campbell’s necklace was picked up by someone who intentionally framed her.
The inkstone was brought over for everyone’s appreciation at Cam Green’s behest. If Cam hadn’t called for Sophia to fetch the inkstone, no one would have known even if it was broken in the end.
So, the old foxes quickly understood what was going on.
So this family not only buys fakes to satisfy their vanity but also schemes against their host?
Ha! How capable they are.
The originally good impression everyone had of Cam Green, the great talent, had now all but eroded away.
The inkstone was Cam’s idea to appreciate, and they didn’t believe that Cam was unaware of it being broken.
Cam truly didn’t know about it; he had only wanted to give his daughter a chance to stand out. He had no idea it would cause such a scene.
But seeing the way people were looking at him, he knew they must think that he and his daughter conspired against Elly Campbell.
Although he didn’t know the specifics, given the things his daughter had been doing recently to win over Adam Jones’s favor, it wasn’t implausible that she really did frame Elly.
Even though he thought this, Cam didn’t let it show on his face, and he even appeared somewhat annoyed by Jenna Clark’s insinuations.
As if dissatisfied with her beating around the bush.
Elly did not hide her thoughts either, saying, "It must have been when I went to the restroom; I was careless and lost it."
No sooner had Elly finished speaking, than Melody Baker let out a cold laugh, her expression filled with scorn.
"Miss Campbell is really something, just casually saying you lost it, and that explains breaking someone else’s gift?"
Elly looked at Melody Baker’s smug behavior, her eyes narrowing deeply.
Had this schemer grabbed a hold of her weakness and was now playing superiority in front of her?
Elly ignored her and turned to Arthur Clark, who stood beside Master Clark, saying:
"Brother, what’s this about? You were welcoming guests. How did you let in such a mess?"
Elly had always been blunt when speaking to the Baker Family, and in front of so many people, she didn’t consider giving Melody Baker any face.
Feeling rather helpless, Arthur was asked by his younger cousin sister .
He didn’t want to let this person in either, but she was brought by James Campbell.
Even though his aunt had divorced James, the Campbell Family and the Clark Family were still old friends, and he had no reason to throw out James when he came to wish his grandfather well.
Furthermore, his grandfather’s birthday was a joyful occasion, and he didn’t want to mar it with any incidents caused by such riffraff.
As long as she behaved herself, he would let her be.
Melody Baker knew that Elly had always looked down on her. Since Sophie was locked up, Elly went to Alaska, and the two had hardly seen each other.
It took her so long to emerge from Elly’s shadow, to walk with her head up and chest out, and now, in front of all these people, Elly was slapping her in the face.
Her complexion darkened, and she glared at Elly with venomous hatred, grinding her teeth.
James Campbell had always protected his "pale moonlight," especially after his divorce from Jenna Clark, he became even more unrestrained.
